Project Description

Kaivalya or Kaivalyam, is the ultimate goal of astanga yoga and means “solitude” “detachment or “isolation” a vrddhi-derivation from kevala alone, isolated. It is the isolation of purusha from prakrti, and liberation from rebirth, ie, Moksha. Kaivalya-Mukti is described in some Upanishads, such as Muktika and Kaivalya as the most superior form of Moksha which can grant liberation both within this life, as Jivanmukti, and after death, as Videhamukti.

The terms kevala, kaivalyam, or kaivalya-mukti are encountered in the Upanishads including the Svetavatara, Kaivalya, the Amptabindu and the Muktika Upanishads.

Kaivalyam, also known as Kevala Jnana, means omniscience in Jainism and is roughly translated as complete understanding or supreme wisdom. Kevala jnana is believed to be an intrinsic quality of all souls. This quality is masked by karmic particles that surround the soul Every soul has the potential to obtain omniscience by shedding off these karmic particles, Jain scriptures speak of twelve stages through which the soul achieves this goal, A soul who has attained kevala jnana is called a kevalin According to the Jains, only kevalins can comprehend objects in all aspects and manifestations, others are only capable of partial knowledge.
